  • No ridicule here, only empathy. It’s a rough hand you’ve been dealt. I wish I had some magic advice to give you but I don’t have any relevant knowledge of Cambodia or how to better secure a life for yourself. What I can say is that being in your 20’s you still have plenty of time to figure your life out.

    You’re educated and in tech so it’s possible some remote work could come your way, or that you could try your hand at creating something of your own to try and market. Contributing to GitHub projects might help you make some connections and networking for jobs. If all else fails, there’s no shame in doing some retail, sales, or labour work while you wait for the tech market to improve (I’m in IT myself, it’s rough out there right now with all these layoffs.).

    Either way, please don’t make any rash choices you can’t take back. It may seem pretty hopeless right now but time has a way of changing that perspective. The world is better with you in it.

    Much love from your Canadian brother :)











  • I actually found it pretty soon after it went free to play, I thought I’d check it out and then BAM I’ve completed all class stories, maxed levels, got into housing decoration, and even have an unhealthy number of alts I’ll definitely get around to playing through again someday.

    I remember being so happy it was on steam largely for the auto updates. Seems it’s been a very healthy success since then.



  • That’s awesome! Thanks for making an MMO I personally have 500 hours in on steam. It’s actually the MMO that made me open to playing MMOs, I hated the genre before because all I knew was WoW and Korean stuff that’s all walls of bland text and dull repetitive tasks that don’t respect your time.

    The stories of SWTOR and full voice acting were something else entirely. I really enjoyed it and have some very fond memories of my first time playing it as a teen years and years ago, it basically absorbed my holiday vacation that year as I found a guild, made friends, got into some RP, and really just found some cool experiences. In a market starving for anything halfway decent that’s star wars I’m glad we have it.

    I request lightsaber pictures!
